Action on the water question seems to
lag lazily. The impurities of the liquid
supplied for drinking purposes to the PEG
pie of this city are SO notorious as to com
mand serious attention. Something should
be done in the interest of better water
service. If it is to be filtered, or cleansed
by any other device, let US get to filtering
If The city is to change her source of gu. :
ply with works of her own, she should take
steps to secure the new supply. If she is
to.accept MIR. Bartlett's proposition it were
better it were done at once. Whatever is
to be done should be done without unnec-
essary delay. We should prefer to see Jer-
sey City with her own water works, and
the master of her. own supplies. That
would entail expenditures that the condi-
ton of the city's finances will not warrant.
and consume moneys aud exhaust sources
of revenue that might more proftably be
utilized in improving the streets. 1t might
not be unwise, after all, to operate under
the Bartlett proposition till we are able to
purchase his franchises and resume bust
ness on our own hook.

of violation of some law is

this elegant specimen of the genus JUS

asked him, that he did not know that

to his lily smelling and dark little court
room, Mr.. Tom Potter may only have
sworn that we had eaten buckwheat
cakes for breakfast at given date. All
he knew was that Potter had sworn that
certain William E. Sackett had done
something or other; and the aforesaid
Sackett must be arrested at once and
put under bonds whether he had right
to do the thing Potter had sworn he had
done or not. The thing needs only to be
stated to show its utter absurdity. The
Monstrous principle asserted in Justice
Jim Daviss admission, would place every
man, woman and child in the community
at his mercy. If he would arrest without
knowing that he had adequate complaint,
he would convict without having the evil

ferred to have the case reviewed by the
grand jury than 70 waste tins in faseieal
examination before him.

they all went in coaches to the Park

arrival of number of Tammany maonates

We are tempted to offer prizs to the
reader who can enlighten us as to the pur-
pose that has prompted Thomas Potter in
: his recent arrests of the Editor of this pa
per for libel. Two years ago the trial of
Robert G. Plumes suit agar st HIM brought
him into a scandalous notorieiy. The
public had forgotten all about the nasty
story, and about Mr.. Thomas Potter too,
till lie revived interest in it and in him by
his complaints in Justice Davs's Court a
few days ago. Why should he now, after
nearly two years, seek to bring all the sorry
details of the story back to the public mem
CRY is the problem that interests his
friends much more, we confess,
than it interests us. One shrewd-
headed business man, who looks for
intelligent motive for the recent move
ments in the case, ventures the opinion
dence to present that he failed to present
at the trial of Plumes suit. But this
gentleman oyer-looks the fact that in the
proceedings sgaiust us which Potter has
begun, fresh evidence cannot count.
His charge against us is that we libeled
him in an editorial comment on the result
of the trial of Plumes suit. If the evidence
taken at that trial justified our editorial
reflections, there is necessarily an end of
the case against us. All the since dis
covered exculpatory proofs in the
world-it there are any-will not
affect the result of his proceedings
against US single lota. Beyond
that, the whole disgraceful story was tried
by Mr.. Potters own letters. They admit
every thing that was alleged against him.
He did not deny the authenticity of his
letters tEea; he cannot deny them now.
So it cannot be in the hope of exculpating
himself with fresh evidence that he has
commenced his recent libel suits. His
proceedings must then either be in the
nature of bluff in the hope Of lifting
from his shoulders some of the NAL odor
which the Plume trial thruss upon him
or to crafty morbid desire for public
notoriety -disgraceful though it be. 1t is
not impossible that Mr.. Thomas Potter
may have gloried in seeing his name
paraded all over the country day by day
for whole week, and in having himself
talked about; that he feels that. the public
is neglecting him now; and that he thirsts
anew for the horrible notoriety the original
trial brought upon him. Whatever his mo-
hve, if Mr.. Thomas Potter gets hurt in this
second trial more seriously than he did in
the hrst, he can lay the blame to nothing
but his own foo.-hardinsss. He will have

Bones OF Long Departed Indians Dug

Bones OF Long Departed Indians Dug
Up ON Amos BentOn's Farm.
WATERBURY, Conn, Oct 21.-Litchheld,
Bantam Lake, near here, is the largest in
Connecticut. On its shore have been found
from time to time Indian arrow and spear
heads, pipes, bowls and other relics, many of
them made from flint which is found only in
distant parts of the State or on Long Island.
Large collections of these relics have been
sent at different times to New York anti
was not only hunting ground, but battle
ground at some time or other. What puz-
zled them was that no graves were ever
found. Yesterday workmen were digging
sand from the field of Amos Benton near the
lake, when they found spot where the dark
top soil extended down into the layers of
white sand.
In the soil were discovered many small
bones and rare collections of arrow heads.
Digging further a number of these spots were
found, and it was established that they were
the graves of departed braves. From the
shape of the places it was apparent that the
men had been buried in sitting position.
One grave was characterized by an unusually
large and choice assortment of weapons of
war and the chase, from which it was con-
cluded that it was a chieftain's or Mug
wump's last resting place. None of the
relics bear token of service, as do those that
have been found around the lake. In the
opinion of the people here this is not regu-
lar cemetery, but burial place after some
battle

P. T. BARNUM's LATEST ENTERPRISE.
THE PEABODY LETTER.

The publication few days since of the
fac-simile of President Peabody's letter is
still the subject of much comment.
1t used to be considered question of pro-
priety to say "a kind word of the result of a
treatment other than that prescribed by a
regular practitioner; and the time was when
a man using an advertised remedy did so
more or less surreptitiously. However, this
has happily given away to a broader and
more liberal view of things, typified in Mr..
Peabodys frank expression that he knows of
no valid reason why commentator should
not be equally as hearty in one instance as
in the other.
Certainly this would appear fair in the face
of the facts. He was assured that the injury
would confine him to the house for three
weeks more, yet in three days use of the
Oil he was out and about his duties as if
nothing had happened. Surely a remedy
that will so practically demonstrate its eff
cacy and that has stood foremost, as has st.
Jacobs Oil, upward of ten years as unap-
proachable for the eradication of pain, is
justly entitled to rank as standard.
That many physicians prescribe it is as true
MS that many physicians use it, and it is only
those of the very old school who, true to
ancient doctrines, can see no good in it, be-
cause it is made known to the world. Not
long since one of these dropped a confidential
note to a friend requesting three bottles be
sent for his personal use Immediately, as
without it his hands were simply no hands
at all, but,'' continued he. for Heavens
sake don't say L said So" This is literally
true.
